What art is, in reality, is this missing link, not the links which exist. It's not what you see that is art; art is the gap.

Marcel Duchamp
Marcel Duchamp

French - Artist July 28, 1887 - October 2, 1968

With the author

All painting, beginning with Impressionism, is antiscientific, even Seurat. I was interested in introducing the precise and exact aspect of science, which hadn't often been done, or at least hadn't been talked about very much.

Marcel Duchamp

I don't believe in art. I believe in artists.

Marcel Duchamp

Dada was an extreme protest against the physical side of painting. It was a metaphysical attitude.

Marcel Duchamp

Humor and laughter - not necessarily derogatory derision - are my pet tools. This may come from my general philosophy of never taking the world too seriously - for fear of dying of boredom.

Marcel Duchamp

I became a librarian at the Sainte-Genevieve Library in Paris. I made this gesture to rid myself of a certain milieu, a certain attitude, to have a clean conscience, but also to make a living. I was twenty-five. I had been told that one must make a living, and I believed it.

Marcel Duchamp

One is a painter because one wants so-called freedom; one doesn't want to go to the office every morning.

Marcel Duchamp

Rational intelligence is dangerous and leads to ratiocination. The painter is a medium who doesn't realize what he is doing. No translation can express the mystery of sensibility, a word, still unreliable, which is nevertheless the basis of painting or poetry, like a kind of alchemy.

Marcel Duchamp

Art is pattern informed by sensibility.

Herbert Read

The idea is, if I can't heal from my art, then how can you heal?

Maynard James Keenan

Life is short, the art long.

Hippocrates

A beautiful lady is an accident of nature. A beautiful old lady is a work of art.

Louis Nizer

Painting is self-discovery. Every good artist paints what he is.

Jackson Pollock

A fool's brain digests philosophy into folly, science into superstition, and art into pedantry. Hence University education.

George Bernard Shaw

Logic is neither a science nor an art, but a dodge.

Benjamin Jowett

Art is a collaboration between God and the artist, and the less the artist does the better.

Andre Gide
